Answer:
Each computer needs 3/2, or 1.5 feet of cable
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, we need to divide 4 1/2 by 3
Then we can make 4 1/2 an improper fraction.
We will also multiply 4 by 2 and then add 1
= 8 + 1
= 9
But;
9/2 = 4 1/2
In order to divide 9/2 by 3/1, we will change 3/1 to 1/3 and then multiply
= 9/2 × 1/3
= 9/6
= 3/2 or 1.5
Therefore, each computer needs 3/2, or 1.5 feet of cable.
